Jutta Wellmann has worked an impressive 43 years at the Landrat Lucas Grammar School in Leverkusen-Opladen. The long-standing school coordinator at the Bayer 04 partner school ended her role on 30 June and was given a fitting departure from the school service on her final working day. A large number of colleagues organised a journey through her places of activity and the hired Bayer 04 Schwadbus stopped at the school and the sports college, Bayer AG, TSV Bayer 04 and the Kurtekotten Performance Centre.
Fortunately, Wellmann will continue to work for Bayer 04 and carry on looking after the talents of the Werkself at the sports college and in the club. In the past she has shown great commitment in supporting the numerous young talents on their dual path. That includes Kai Havertz, Danny da Costa, Benjamin Henrichs, Pauline Wimmer, Pauline Machtens and recently Florian Wirtz. We congratulate you on your impressive professional career and wish you all the best for the future, Jutta.
